Man United vs. Man City Odds, Picks & Props
Inconsistent Start from Red Devils
Man United has had a mixed bag of results at the start of this Premier League season. Michael Carrick’s men have taken four points from a possible nine in the EPL after one win, one draw, and one defeat.
Having lost 2-0 in the opening game at Hull City, the Red Devils bounced back with a big 5-2 home victory over Ipswich Town. However, United let a late lead slip to tie 2-2 at Everton last time out in the league.
Carrick’s side did get back to winning ways in midweek, easing past Sabah by four goals to zero in their UEFA Champions League opener. Can United follow that up by claiming a third straight home victory today?
City Aiming for Five Wins in Five
Enzo Maresca has made a strong start to life in the blue side of Manchester. Man City has won three out of three in the Premier League, seeing off Bournemouth, Crystal Palace, and Coventry City.
The Citizens also won in the Champions League in midweek. They faced a tricky test in Porto, but an Erling Haaland brace was enough for an excellent 2-0 away victory.
City’s away record at Old Trafford has not been great in recent times, but Maresca’s in-form men will back themselves to do the business at their rivals’ home today.
Head-to-Head Meetings
Both teams won the home fixture last season. A year ago, Man City picked up a comfortable 3-0 win at the Etihad Stadium, with Haaland scoring two and Phil Foden netting.
Man United got revenge in the meeting at Old Trafford. After a goalless first period, Bryan Mbeumo broke the deadlock in the 65th minute. Around ten minutes later, Patrick Dorgu doubled the home team’s advantage to seal a 2-0 win.
